Press complaint lodged over 'male O&Gs hate women' article

The newspaper columnist who suggested male obstetricians and gynaecologists “hate women” and “like to see them in pain” is likely to be investigated by the Press Complaints Council.

Under a headline 'Is it really a job for a man?', journalist Nikki Gemmell questioned the motives of male obstetricians and gynaecologists, referring to two high-profile abuse cases: the harms inflicted by disgraced obstetrician Graeme Reeves, dubbed 'the Butcher of Bega', and Dr Emil Gayed, who was recently accused of needlessly removing women’s reproductive organs.
